Kash is remembered by friends and family
Paige was known for her time on the reality shows "Real West Coast Baddies," "RoomH8z" and "Young & Reckless." She was also a social media influencer with over 35 thousand Instagram followers, as well as a makeup artist.
Shortly after the shooting, loved ones began creating memorial at the scene. Friend Poodahh described Paige as "so fun" and full of life in an interview with KTVU, while cousin Nicky Clayton said she was always working toward her dreams.
"She wanted to be famous so bad. She still had morals, don't get me wrong. She wanted to be a reality star. She was wanted to start her own business. She was modeling for a lot of companies, and she really wanted to do makeup," Clayton said.
The outlet further reported Paige was sharing videos of her and a group out on her Instagram Stories just hours before she was killed, and Clayton, growing emotional, said Paige was just "chilling" with "family" that night.
"She was supposed to be good, so I don't know what transpired or nothing like that, but I know she was supposed to be here," Clayton added.
